    Surprisingly fun listen with excellent quality sound (detailed with solid bottom-end) and pressing. I bought it only because it was on sale for $9.95 on Acoustic Sounds.

      Glorious repress of this summer sound, had an original but this sounds warmer with a bit more bottom end, lush!
      Let's not forget about the quality of the music here... Please Set Me at Ease, Una Esta and The Trip being the stand out moments. A rich production with lots of subtle slick elements in the mix, beautiful music. Bobbi's playing, Mizell magic with Kev Gray's touch on the mastering make this an absolute jazz funk winner

        My copy has a Donald Byrd "Places and Spaces" label on both sides which was... unexpected. Sound quality great, really good repress.

          Not very happy with this pressing, sounds a little dull to me

            Stellar reissue with superb sound. This is how it should be made. Kudos!

              Currently €14.00 on Amazon’s French website. I paid that plus a few euros delivery to the UK for a total price of £15.

                For anyone who is able to read this, as of right now, 6/18/2023, Acoustic Sounds has this record for $9.95, band new and sealed, of course.

                  Amazing pressing. Flat 180 gram vinyl is so quiet. This is probably Bobbi Humphrey’s finest album. Truly essential

                    Picked up my copy yesterday. Insanely clean, dead flat, plays beautifully. Just a slight hint of surface noise during the run-in grooves and between songs. Kevin Gray's mastering is fantastic, as always!

                      First copy I bought was terribly distorted on the title track, but my second copy is truly perfect in every way.
